HIS AFTERGLOW

Chapter | THIRTEEN

[HEADS AND TAILS]

'The wrong person makes you beg for attention, affection, love, and commitment. The right person gives you these things because they love you.'

Just half-past eleven and my tab was already sold out earlier than I was presuming. After forwarding my sales in the office, I dashed back to the bar just to tell Narae that I'll be heading out early only to notice that person standing near the bar, someone that I least expect to see here.

"Miss Lim." I muttered quite perplexed by her sudden appearance and I doubt it's because she just wanted to have a good drink with two of her friends.

"So you really work here, Seri." she mocked along with a glare that clearly spells catastrophe.

"It's Sera and yeah, I am working here but already done with my shift today so if you want your drinks, call the server they will be-"

"No! You serve us, that's your job. I even brought my friends here just so I can show them the woman my fiance left me for. Now, I wonder why Kyungsoo is going crazy over you? A low-profile bitch from a local bar in Itaewon - utterly cheap." she breathed out unmistakably provoked.

I scoffed then plastered a sharp grin, this bitch doesn't know who she's going up against to and I am still calm to even bust her flawlessly molded face for that unpopular comment. I am literally getting this mean girl's vibe with the way they are staring down on me but I just don't give a fuck.

"You came all the way here, dressed and dolled up just to bitterly show your friends that you lost Kyungsoo to someone like me? Well, there goes your answer, you just made it clear why he chooses me over you that quickly" I grumbled sweeping my sight from her head down to her toes. "I look and act more human."

She smirked menacingly before aggressively pushing my collar with her pointer finger, making my frame back up a bit - I think I hit some nerves up on her crazy head.

"Ya! hands-off, biatch!" Narae shouted from the bar.

"I'm all good, eonnie. They are leaving now, I just told them that I am already done for the day." I remarked a bit louder, I don't want to cause a stir in the crowd when the bar is full packed tonight.

"Who told you we were leaving?" the other woman who looks like a giraffe sounded. "Not until we teach you a lesson!"

"Uh- who are you again?" I lift my hand and blocked her face from view then switch my attention back to Lim Nayeon.

"Look, I need to be somewhere else so do whatever you want - I don't care, just leave me alone before I even lose it." I returned unamused along with a sarcastic tone before rotating my frame around. 

I have more important things to attend to and I obviously don't have the time and energy to deal with these people now. I continue walking my way out of the club when something hard hit me on the back and with that shattering sound, it was a fucking glass for sure. 

I am just relieved that I was wearing a leather jacket over my strapped dress or else that might cut and bruise my back pretty bad and if that shit happens, these three would basically pay for it with their faces.

"You stealing bitch!" she roared.

I turn around then saw Lim Nayeon breathing exasperatedly, this woman might be pretty and all but I guess wearing Chanel doesn't give one a graceful character. She grabbed another glass and hoist it in the air, I know she's determined to hurt me tonight which is absolutely pointless - I am not stealing anyone from her, never will. 

"Lim Nayeon!"

That deep cold voice, I am sure it was him. 

I lean my head back at the door and shit! It is Do Kyungsoo and the way he was glaring at his ex as if he's ready to butcher her only makes the situation more complicated. I was about to say something but he hastily grabbed me by the wrist and haul my frame outward the club.
